Amazon is trying something new to entice Prime members to purchase one of their Prime Exclusive Phones. Right now, if you purchase the Moto X4 at its regular Prime discounted price of $349.99, you’ll get an Amazon Echo for free. This is the first time Amazon has ever bundled their own hardware devices with a Prime Exclusive Phone. It’s fitting that the Echo is included with the Moto X4 because it’s among the few phones that comes with hands-free Alexa capabilities. The Moto X4 was released in October and recently went on sale for the first time for $249.99 during a one day only sale. If you’re in the market for a new phone and an Echo, this is a pretty good deal.

The Moto X 4th Gen is on sale for $249.99 today only for Prime members. This is the Prime Exclusive Phone version of the Moto X4 that comes with Amazon apps preloaded but no longer has lock screen ads. The regular version of this phone is $399.99. The Prime Exclusive version has been $349.99 ever since it was released late last year, so this sale is $100 off the already discounted price. The Moto X4 is among the very few phones that feature hands-free Alexa. It packs in a Snapdragon 630 octa-core CPU clocked at 2.2GHz and a 650Mhz Adreno 508 GPU with a 1080p 5.2-inch IPS screen, 3GB of RAM, and 32GB of internal storage that is expandable through a microSD slot. The phone is available in either black or sterling blue, which looks more silver than blue, and works on all major US networks. This sale ends tonight at midnight.

It’s an official update from Amazon to the offers app that is already on your device. This APK was pulled from a Moto G5 Plus, but it should also work on other Prime exclusive Phone makes and models.
